FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

Wild mint scattered about the
house will rid it of rats and mice.
-Lampblack mixed with strong
vinegar will mark sheep so that it will
remain a year and not injure the wool
as do tar and paint.
To remove mildew. rub common
yellow soap on the damaged article.
and then salt the starch on that. Rub
well and put Out in the sunshine.
Steady application is what count,
in any business, especially in farming.
for in this employment day or an
hour wasted is usually more than loss
of time, for it is opportunity gone.
Picked Eggs.-Boil in kettle one
quart of vinegar, half dozen cloves, one
dozen allspise, one teaspoon pepper and
one tablespoon mustard, and pour over
one dozen hard-boiled eggs, previously
shelled and placed in q jar.-ChicagO
Herald. .
A scientific writer tells how water
can be boiled in a sheet of writing
paper. We don't doubt. We have
known a man to write few lines on 3
sheet of writing paper that kept him
in hot water for three years. Christian
! ut HOrS.
One poultry raiser protects his
hens from lice by suspending over each
hen small bag of thin muslin filled
with flour of sulphur, so that the hen
will knock it in getting on and off the
nest, or it may be occasionally shaken
over her.
Ben: Perley Poore used to say that
if farmers would thrive, they must
change their policy. They must con-
centrate their labor. they must give to
few acres the care now usually be-
slowed on many, and if necessary TO
do this they must diminish their farms.
Yeast Corn Cakes.-To one quart OF
warm water, add one cup of -four and
enough meal to make thin batter, one
half cup of dried homemade yeast;
soak well. then add to the batter. Let
stand over night; then add salt and a
little soda; bake on hot griddle and
YOU will have an excellent breakfast
cake.-Erchdnge.
To those who may not be familiar
with collie dogs it may be stated that
they will not drive sheep or cattle I'M
less first trained to do so, though the
supposition on the part of some is that
such dogs perform the work by natural
instinct. They are more easily taught
to drive stock than any other breed of
dogs. but they will not do so unless
taught. -Indiandpolis Journal.
Quick Sponge Cake.-Take four
eggs (yelks and whites separately, one
cupful of pulverized sugar, one cupful
flour and pinch of salt. Beat the
yelks of the eggs with the sugar; add
the whites, and beat in the flour very
lightly, and only just enough to mix it
through, for longer beating makes il
tough. Bake it in one loaf in moder-
ate oven, keeping the heat steady.
This is the most quickly and easily
made of all sponge cake.-Indianapo-

CONSIDERATION.

.. sometimes such little thing
Can hope and cheer impart,
TO one grown tired, and healing bring
Unto wounded heart.
A kindly smile, pleasant word,
Which We can always give,
Perhaps some weary soul has stirred
With strength to love and live.
Something we did unheedingly
Has helped one on his way;
The song we sing so careleSsly
May light some dreary day.
These little things seem naught; but D
Be generous OF such, brothers,
and feel the JOY which angels know,
In giving JOY to others.

time OF his nomination for the Vice Presidency he

loss OF his wife, In the early part of 1876, was
severe blow TO him in every way. IL seemed to
Loosen his grasp upon affairs, and he became an
altered man from that day. He accepted the n0rni-
nation that year with feeling that his career was
practically ended; for he has been heard to say
that Benjamin franklin showed, by his sugges-
ton In the constitutional convention that the
title OF the Vice President be Ellis SuperfiuCu5

moral seems 10 be that city street railways are ex-
trcrely valuable, and that the franchises or such
roads should not be presented as gifts but should
Ire sold at auction with proper precautions and
thus made Il source OF revenue to the public
treasury. Where existing roads are so situated
under their charters that no such revenue can be
secured from them, better service and cheaper
rates may Reasonably be demanded.
